+git-annex 6.20160419 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
+[[!toggleable text="""
+ * Fix bug that prevented resuming of uploads to encrypted special remotes
+ that used chunking.
+ * That bug could also expose the names of keys to such remotes when
+ attempting to resume an upload, so it is a minor security issue.
+ * Fix duplicate progress meter display when downloading from a git remote
+ over http with -J.
+ * reinject: When src file's content cannot be verified, leave it alone,
+ instead of deleting it.
+ * reinject: Added new mode which can reinject known files into the annex.
+ For example: git-annex reinject --known /mnt/backup/*
+ * calckey: New plumbing command, calculates the key that would be used
+ to refer to a file.
+ * Fix bug that prevented annex.sshcaching=false configuration from taking
+ effect when on a crippled filesystem. Thanks, divergentdave.
+ * git 2.9.0 is going to prevent git merge from merging in unrelated
+ branches. Since the webapp's pairing etc features often combine
+ together repositories with unrelated histories, work around
+ this behavior change when the assistant merges, by passing
+ --allow-unrelated-histories. Note though that this is not done
+ for git annex sync's merges, so it will follow git's default or
+ configured behavior.
+ * When git-annex is used with a git version older than 2.2.0, disable
+ support for adjusted branches, since GIT\_COMMON\_DIR is needed to update
+ them and was first added in that version of git.
+ * Avoid setting LOCPATH in linux standalone builds that are built with
+ a ghc that has been fixed to not hang when it cannot find locale files.
+ * Isolate test suite from global git config settings."""]] \ No newline at end of file
